Joachim Neu

Joachim Neu is research at Paradigm, collaborator at Ethereum Foundation, Protocol Labs PhD fellow.

He is a 4th year PhD student at Stanford working with David Tse on Internet-scale open-participation consensus (in more hype terms: the technical foundations of blockchains). His current research focus is provable consensus security for next-generation Ethereum, and provable security and performance of proof-of-stake consensus under bandwidth constraints and network-level attacks. While a Masters student at Technical University of Munich and a visiting student researcher at MIT, EPFL, and KAUST, he published in information and coding theory. He has been supported by Protocol Labs PhD Fellowship, Ethereum Foundation, Stanford Graduate Fellowship, and German Academic Scholarship Foundation.
